Teen solves centuries-old math problem
CORTONA, Italy, Aug. 6 (UPI) -- British rock star Sting and his wife Trudie Styler starred in a staging of an experimental work known as "Twin Spirits" in the Italian town of Cortona Thursday.
Inspired by the romance of German composer Robert Schumann and his pianist wife Clara Wieck, the ensemble performance featured both sung lyrics and experimental music, as well as readings of the lovers' letters, ANSA said.
The staging was part of the Tuscan Sun Festival, a weeklong event set to wrap up Friday.
Also performing at the festival this week were sopranos Ekaterina Scherbachenko and Renee Fleming, tenor Marcello Giordani, violinist Joshua Bell and cellist Steven Isserlis, ANSA said.
